Kate has provided care for 3 of my children over a period of 5 years. She is flexible and provides care that is second to none. My son has just left her to go to nursery but had been attending for 2 years. The whole family are lovely, she's a fantastic childminder.

Thankyou for your lovely review. Always a pleasure to care for your children.
Kate has been a childminder for both my boys (now 5 and 11) since my youngest was a baby. I have always been impressed by Kate's professionalism and her commitment to ensuring the kids are happy, healthy, safe...and enjoying themselves!
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Kate to any parent, I have seen her work with young babies and older children and my kids definitely enjoy their time with her whilst I'm at work - which makes me going to work a lot easier!
